He lay on the bed, thinking back on what happened today. It was like a dream.
What exactly happened?
Without time to think, he closed his heavy eyelids.
With these questions in mind, he fell into a deep sleep amid the sound of birds singing outside the window.
But he never woke up again.
Birds chirping, flowers blooming, spring in the air, bird-filled villages, and that girl with a sweet smile...
All the beauty is shattered like a mirror, and the short-lived happiness turns into a fleeting dream.
"Supreme Master, today's soul has arrived."
Zhongli Tian brought the unconscious man into the main hall and handed him over to Ye Xishui.
"Go down."
"Yes."
Observe...
Ye Xishui seemed to have no interest in torturing the man today, and took his life decisively.
But just after she killed someone, she suddenly froze.
I didn't feel the familiar power of resentment being generated.
She raised her hands, looked at the man who had a peaceful face before his death, and muttered to herself.
"It's really strange that someone can laugh before dying."
……
"Yuhao, do you think it makes sense to do this?"
In the sea of spirit, Bingdi asked: "You used so much soul power, and had to be careful not to be discovered, just to make up a beautiful dream for that person before he died?"
Huo Yuhao replied calmly: "I used to think that no matter how cruel the reality is, we should face it bravely. Immersing ourselves in the virtual world is a sign of cowardice. But now I don't think so."
"Just think of me as a young artist who can provide the final hospice care for people."
"Holy Spirit Cult..."
As Huo Yuhao muttered to himself, his expression became increasingly gloomy.
"Ice Emperor, Snow Emperor, Tian Meng, Elder Yin, I can't wait any longer."
"I want to speed up the hunt."
After a long pause, Xue Di replied calmly, "As you wish."
Chapter 307 Preparations for the Holy Spirit Church
Huo Yuhao stood expressionlessly in a luxurious room in the Qingse Hotel under the Xishui League, admiring the view of Mingdu through the window.
This place is only two kilometers away from the imperial city of the Sun-Moon Empire. It is in an absolutely prime location and is an important stronghold of the Xishui League and the Holy Spirit Church.
On the surface, he was looking at the scenery boredly, but in fact, he was using his mind to detect and investigate everything around him, while carefully analyzing the information he had currently obtained.
Today, many evil soul masters from the Holy Spirit Church gathered in this hotel.
Xishui League is the official industry of the Holy Spirit Cult. Its leader is the second elder, Tianwu Douluo Nangong Wan, but all of Xishui League's industries are controlled by its deputy leader Feng Ling.
On weekdays, there are also several elders such as the third elder Minglei Douluo, the fourth elder Youming Douluo and others who reside in Xishui League.
The third elder, Minglei Douluo, has a cultivation level of only ninety-two, but because he is also a ninth-level soul engineer, he ranks very high.
Huo Yuhao thought quietly.
He was thinking about how to hunt evil soul masters efficiently.
With his current status as the Son of God, he can easily come into contact with the evil soul masters in the Holy Spirit Church.
As long as he could catch those evil soul masters alone, that would be the time for him to take action. With the help of the Two Emperors of Ice and Snow, he would be confident that he could defeat even an elder at the Titled Douluo level.
Although those Title Douluo elders would not be opponents of the Ice and Snow Emperors, if they really fought for their lives, it was still possible for them to escape. Moreover, a Title Douluo-level battle would definitely leave a huge noise, and the aftermath of the battle would also spread far and wide.
However, Huo Yuhao has already figured out how to solve it.
All we have to do is trick those elders into the undead demiplane.
Once you enter the undead demiplane, even a Titled Douluo elder cannot escape.
The problem now facing Huo Yuhao is how to advance the hunting process.
From top to bottom or from bottom to top?
Starting with the elders above, the strength of the Holy Spirit Church can be quickly reduced. Hunting one per month, twenty Title Douluo can be hunted down in less than two years.
But that's obviously not realistic.
No matter how weak a Titled Douluo is, he would be a top combat force in any organization. His silent disappearance would definitely cause high alert, not to mention that it is a cult like the Holy Spirit Church that relies on brainwashing to achieve a very high degree of organization.
Once they succeed once or twice, the Holy Spirit Church will surely realize that there is a force targeting them and start to take strict precautions, and they may also be exposed.
So we should still start from the bottom up.
The Holy Spirit Church has many strongholds, and the low-level evil soul masters below are managed by the elders of each branch temple, and those branch temple elders are in turn subordinate to the eight great elders.
Those low- and middle-level evil soul masters are the easiest targets. Even if they die, the eight elders will only think that they accidentally offended some big shot, and the investigation will not be too strict.
Huo Yuhao couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
"It seems that you have a new idea." Xue Di's cold voice sounded, "Where is your original plan to wipe out the whole group? Changing your orders every day is not a good habit."
"This is not a one-off thing. I can work on both lines at the same time."
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, “What’s more, even the policies that determine the future of the country can be changed in a short period of time. It should be understandable that I can change the specific plan of a small plan according to the actual situation, right?”
Just then, the door opened, and a servant walked in and said cautiously, "Sir, the leader has a meeting and invites you to attend."
"Yeah." Huo Yuhao responded calmly and walked out.
Sitting in the luxurious conference room were four Title Douluo including Deputy Sect Leader Feng Ling, Fire Phoenix Saint Ma Xiaotao, several Soul Douluo, and a dozen young evil soul masters, almost all of whom were at the Soul King and Soul Emperor levels. Huo Yuhao had seen some of them during the Soul Ascension Ceremony.
Huo Yuhao was the last one to enter the conference room. As soon as he entered, he heard a voice saying, “Welcome to the Holy Son.”
Except for Feng Ling, Ma Xiaotao who was below her, and several other elders who were seated, everyone else stood up and saluted.
Huo Yuhao snorted lightly, walked to Feng Ling's side, and swept his eyes over the evil soul masters.
Facing so many Titled Douluo, he was not afraid at all.
Among the four Titled Douluo, in addition to the second elder and the third elder, there was an old man in black who was very special.
He was thin and had dark skin. He had two eyebrows, one higher than the other. There was a Chinese character "王" on his forehead. At this moment, he was squinting his eyes and observing Huo Yuhao.
His strength has reached the Super Douluo level.
“I have never seen this person in the soul raising ceremony.” Huo Yuhao thought to himself.
The feeling this person gave him was different from Feng Ling and the others. There was a hint of the aura of an evil soul master on him, but it was not strong and pure.
Feng Ling introduced: "Zhang Peng, this is the Saint Son that my sect has just found. Saint Son, this is Senior Zhang Peng, the Scorpion Tiger Douluo of the Worship Hall."
Huo Yuhao greeted him indifferently: "Greetings, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Peng narrowed his eyes and laughed, "Deputy Sect Leader, I have heard a lot about the Holy Son. He was able to summon the beast soul to defeat Yan Feng. The Holy Son is indeed a good man."
Huo Yuhao said nothing more.
Feng Ling nodded slightly, motioned for everyone to sit down, and said in a deep voice: "I summoned you all here today to convey the leader's order."
"My sect has cooperated with the Sun and Moon Royal Family. We will participate in the upcoming Youth Soul Master Competition under the name of the Holy Spirit Sect."
Then Feng Ling briefly introduced the new competition system of the competition.
"Since the sect teams have been introduced to this competition, there will definitely be many strong contenders for the championship."
"Your mission is to help the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy eliminate its opponents and escort them to win the championship."
"The royal family will do something during the group draw, so you won't run into the Sun Moon Academy, don't worry."
A young evil spirit master asked in confusion: "Master Deputy Sect Leader, even if we don't run into Sun Moon Academy, how can we guarantee that they will make it to the finals?"
"In addition to Shrek Academy, there must be many powerful sects."
Feng Ling laughed: "If Sun Moon Academy is eliminated early, then it will be your turn to perform."
"The current Sun-Moon Emperor is running out of time. When the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, he will declare our Holy Church the state religion of the Sun-Moon Empire. Winning the championship will naturally be of great benefit to our Church."
At this point, Feng Ling turned to look at Huo Yuhao and said, "Haha, Holy Son, the strongest of our younger generation, Yan Feng, was injured by you during the Spirit Ascension Ceremony. I'm afraid he will not be able to participate in the competition."
"Do you have any intention of participating in the competition?"
Huo Yuhao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and glanced at the young evil soul masters, looking at each of them.
He did not intentionally release his pressure, but instead added a hint of contempt and mockery to his cold gaze.
Those evil soul master geniuses who had killed countless people at a young age felt subconsciously afraid just by meeting Huo Yuhao's gaze. They avoided his sight and did not dare to look him in the face.
“How could I miss such an interesting thing? But…” Huo Yuhao said with a smile.
"Just what?"
"I have no interest in participating in the boring knockout rounds, nor in the individual competitions. I will only participate in team battles when the intensity reaches the semi-finals."
He looked coldly at the young evil soul masters and said, "If you are eliminated by other teams before the semi-finals, I think your Soul Emperor cultivation will be wasted. Sacrifice them all to the Holy Emperor."
Several young evil soul masters felt a chill down their spines and bowed their heads respectfully, "Yes, Master Saint."
Seeing this, Feng Ling nodded with satisfaction and said, "With the Holy Son here, the championship of the competition will definitely be in our hands."
"But you still have to be careful and restrain yourself in the competition, so as not to embarrass the Crown Prince."
"Once the competition is over, you will naturally go on a killing spree."
Huo Yuhao has now confirmed that Xu Tianran will collude with the Holy Spirit Church and attack all participating teams at the end of the next competition.
Are you afraid that they will demolish Mingdu?
The Holy Spirit Church doesn't care about this; what they want is more and more killing, chaos, death and evil spirits.
Feng Ling looked at the second and third elders again: "Second and third elders, how is the preparation for the underground soul mentor competition going?"
